you had me from the beginning with your lamenting about about CGI gorillas in the sand and propaganda movies getting all the production budgets. i was glued to this piece all the way through from your vivid erotic writing and your musings at the end about sex becoming more capitalistic because everyone is so hurried, tired, and simultaneously over-stimulated all the time. indeed, there is something kind of vintage-feeling about slow, really good lingering sex that's not about the finish line but just about the moment.

How are you 25 and so good at this? "I like being laughed at, at least by her. It’s the sincerest form of degradation and belittling I can get." HOT. "Only people who lived through that rare window of American prosperity between 1970 and 2008 have the time to trib." Hilarious. "Doing things for the sake of doing them, for more casual pleasure, feels like 'a waste of time.'" Relatable.

This was exceptionally well-written, just the perfect balance and play between your internal experience and the external activity that was influencing it.

"She, a lifelong dominant top with 45+ years of experience, laughs in my face when I make this initial attempt at domination."

It is so sad to see other people live out your dreams. Anyways, I am halfway through your essay and all I know is that I need an older woman to truly show me the ropes of this bc wow. Congrats to you girl.

"That’s right, the phrase and practice of dry humping has become so out of fashion that Mormons have been led to believe they invented their own sexual ritual"

I refuse to live in a world where the fucking Mormons affirm they invented anything sexual. I am so sorry if any Mormon reads this, but from my point of view the Mormon Church is basically a religious cult (huge! but nonetheless a religious cult) that is obsessed with virginity, purity and chasity. They are not creating anything!

They are incredibly sexually repressed. And not even in a fun-sexually-charged Catholic way! They do not hold the space needed to experiment, to seduce or to just feel. It is sad to say, but they have way too much self righteous shame for any of that.

Most importantly, Mormons seem to strive for such a beige, boring and clonelike existence, that any type of diversion is just out of the question.

Capitalism, short attention spans, it’s all trickled down to the bedroom in horrible ways. NOBODY IS MAKING OUT ANYMORE which correlates to the dry humping epidemic. It’s probably why purity culture is coming back on the rise. People aren’t enjoying sex anymore, the slow parts that make you present and just feel. We’ve lost the art of sensuality, intimacy, good long world shattering orgasms.

Lost. As an Aroace person, it's the only sexual act I can tolerate other than close lip kissing 🙃
